SDNY COURTHOUSE, Jan 5 – William Beckler was biking on Pearl Street and Park Row in lower Manhattan when a movable barrier was raised and he flew off his bike, on September 11, 2019. He was injured, and has sued. He is a lawyer.
On January 5 U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Magistrate Judge Katharine H. Parker held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it.
The US Attorney's Office explained that the Court Security Officers do not work for the US Marshall's Service, but rather for a security vendor. Time was provided until February 5 to bring in a third-party defendant.
Beckler has requested the video, and it seems to exist. Discovery runs through June 30.
The case is Beckler v. United States Marshals Service, 20-cv-6253 (Parker)
